Chapter 1085: Chapter 506: Nine-headed Bird! (Part 2)
This is the technology of the Ancient God Clan, also the control center of this tomb.
"Tianji slipped."
A fleeting anger flashed in his eyes, and he said in a deep voice, "It seems that those who can break into this tomb indeed have extraordinary ans. Dr. Zhou, can you confirm who the intruder is?"
Even though he maintained a fa??ade of calmness, his complexion looked extrely unpleasant.
Like a corpse freshly unearthed from its grave.
After all, his son, one of his most prized possessions, was severely injured at a crucial point of evolution.
Dr. Zhou instructed his subordinates via intercom to prepare first aid, turned around and said, "Rest assured, this Forbidden Zone was created based on your teacher’s consciousness. As long as we have the key, no intruder can escape. You needn’t act personally; I will lead the team to eliminate the intruder."
He put down the tablet, which was still displaying Rhein’s ntal fluctuation graph.
After rescue efforts, the ntal fluctuations had gradually stabilized, but the heartbeat was still flatlined.
"Those who hard Vice President Lai Yin must pay the price."
He said with a smile.
"You?"
Lord Bai Jin silently turned his head to look at him, with a hint of confusion in his eyes, frowned and said, "I fear you might get killed. What Rank are you again? I rember you are not a combat personnel, are you?"
Perhaps due to old age, this elder looked at the young doctor before him and felt a bit unfamiliar: "Dr. Zhou, you are one of my most precious assets. Your great-grandfather was the most capable researcher under my teacher, unfortunately killed in the Ancient God Chaos two hundred years ago. Mr. Zhou dedicated his life to academic research. I had never heard he left any offspring until I discovered you..."
Dr. Zhou bowed slightly and said with a smile, "Of course I know, you are my ntor. Back then, under your Master’s wife’s hand, I couldn’t fulfill my ambitions, but you promoted
and gave
a chance. Together, we researched what your teacher left behind, finally opened the door here, discovering all its secrets, didn’t we?"
"You can rest assured, although I’m a researcher, my Rank is quite high."
He corrected, "Have you forgotten? Back when at the Undersea Tomb beneath the Qilin Immortal Palace, it was I who orchestrated the Blood Moon Slaughter event. I am indeed your most capable asset. If you act here, the outside world will easily perceive the existence of this Forbidden Zone. But I am different; I have special abilities."
Lord Bai Jin froze, rubbed his forehead lightly, and said in a low voice, "Old age makes one forgetful, almost forgot your abilities. In that case, be very careful not to let the secrets here leak out."
He emphasized, "Especially, do not let them near the teacher’s corpse!"
At this mont, Lord Bai Jin indeed couldn’t leave because he had to watch over his son.
This is Rhein’s most vulnerable ti, making him an easy target for assassination.
Dr. Zhou lifted his head, a mysterious and profound smile on his lips, his voice turning deep and eerie: "Rest assured, if it’s who I suspect, I’ve dealt with him before, I’m quite familiar."
After speaking, he turned and left, instructing: "Take care of Vice President Lai Yin."
At this mont, the researchers stopped their actions and bowed slightly to show respect.
Lord Bai Jin responded with an "Hmm," seemingly enjoying being revered and worshiped.
Yet strangely, these researchers didn’t seem to look at him, instead staring at the departing doctor.
This was quite peculiar, given that Lord Bai Jin was the one holding the greatest Authority in the Human World, and these humble researchers should know who truly held power.
However, they never spared the elderly man a glance.
"Goodbye, respected Lord Bai Jin, may the world forever remain under our rule."
Under the candlelight, Dr. Zhou removed his white protective suit, revealing a remarkably handso face, with slanted eyes looking hauntingly seductive, his shadow twisted on the stone wall like a demon.
Just like a... Nine-headed Bird.

"Detected ti-space fluctuations, the inner courtyard may be under enemy attack, all departnts please prepare."
Professor Cheng glanced down at his phone, the Deep Space Network had issued a warning sixty seconds prior, and the detected ti-space fluctuation source was precisely on the back mountain, yet he saw nothing.
But with his intelligence, a vast energy had crashed into the sea fifty kiloters away.
Indeed, there is an issue with the back mountain!
According to Gu Jianlin’s plan, he should be on the back mountain preparing for tomb robbing, excavating his Master’s Ancestor’s tomb.
This unforeseen situation made him tense.
"No, must think of sothing, that’s the child entrusted to
by the President. In such circumstances, who can save him? Qing and Chi are still nowhere to be found, must I seek Lin Dong who has imprisoned himself? This shouldn’t be, this absolutely shouldn’t be, this deviates from my plan, they deceived ..." The aging professor unexpectedly flew into a rage, his phone cracked and thrown aside.
Suddenly, he saw the yellow sunset sinking below the horizon, penetrating through the tree crowns, its twilight dimming and vanishing, darkness and shadows spreading like a tidal wave.
The accompanying Family Heads stood under the trees, deep and terrifying like specters.
They raised their heads, smiling mysteriously and profoundly in unison.
Professor Cheng froze, dim light and warmth erging faintly along the dark mountain path, vermillion flas flickering.
They’re here!
They’ve arrived!
This scene he’d witnessed many tis but never so abruptly.
Professor Cheng took a deep breath, tremblingly knelt down, showing sincere reverence.
Amidst the vermillion flas, a figure walked out vaguely.
Professor Cheng heard light, slow footsteps.
It was a man wearing a red skull mask, his pitch-black straight suit seeming gilded, an expensive watch reflecting dazzling flas, flas fluttering behind him.
"We et again, old professor."
The man said with a smile, "No need for this, the presence you fear has yet to arrive."
Professor Cheng was silent for a mont, slowly raising his head, hoarsely said: "Solomon, you deceived ."
Solomon tilted his head, smilingly asked, "From where did it begin?"
Professor Cheng raised his clouded eyes, staring at him intently, said gravely: "Things shouldn’t be this way, that child shouldn’t be entering that tomb. I’ve already answered his questions as you said. As agreed, Qilin can fall into deep slumber, but you shouldn’t appear before him!"
Solomon looked down at the old man, pondering and said: "He’s not your child, why bother?"
Professor Cheng’s eyes filled with rage, enunciated word by word: "This is the President’s trust!"
"For temporary downfall, leading to a lifeti of regret? For a traitor like you, holding to one bottom line can truly atone? Alright, I respect your choice. But I know, you’ve said things better left unsaid, hinted at things better left unspoken." Solomon sighed.
Professor Cheng remained expressionless, responded: "The child is proficient in profile and overly smart. If I lie to him, he’d easily see through it. I only followed your instruction, nine truths and one lie."
Solomon glanced at him and said calmly, "But you shouldn’t have hinted at my identity to him."
The old professor’s face changed dramatically, a slender hand inching toward his chest.
Solomon reached into his pocket, extracting a dim golden feather, sighing: "Golden Phoenix Feather, truly a marvelous thing. Back when Tai Hua President’s power could halt our faith’s expansion, it already startled . Unexpectedly, she even managed to restore our believer’s sanity."
"Luckily, we discovered it early, or else sothing serious might have occurred."
This mysterious man smiled, raised a finger.
A sword Qi roar faintly erged, aid at the elder’s head.
Professor Cheng angrily glared at him, like an aged lion in decline.
Yet at this mont, Solomon’s expression drastically changed.
For within the dim Golden Phoenix Feather, a brilliant gold burst forth, piercing toward his heart!
